Chapter 775 I Miss You
"Alaric, I've never seen a worse man than you. How can you abandon Cecilia and your child just for your own wealth and status? How can you be so greedy? Don't you think your behavior is shameless? As a man, can't you be a bit more generous and carefree? Since you don't want Cecilia anymore, why do you still keep her by your side, to watch you and another woman in love? Are you a demon?" Seraphina seemed relentless.
She really couldn't stop.
She just wanted to scold, to curse out loud.
Alaric's face looked terrible.
Cassius's face wasn't looking too good either.
At this moment, he didn't know why, but he felt a bit pleased.
There was a sense of justice being served.
Alright.
Standing in Alaric's shoes, he shouldn't be adding insult to injury.
But in fact, Cecilia was indeed wronged in this matter.
Wronged for so long without crying or making a fuss.
Anyone would be depressed, right?
Now that Seraphina was scolding for her, she might feel a bit better, right?
"Cecilia is just too good-tempered. If it were me, I wouldn't even have given you a child! And if I did, I wouldn't let the child call you dad. I'd remarry and have the child call someone else dad, just to piss you off." Seraphina became more and more unrestrained.
Cecilia was really afraid that if Seraphina continued, her life would be in danger.
She went downstairs.
Step by step, slowly down the stairs.
Seeing Cecilia, Seraphina got even more excited, "Cecilia, you're just in time. I'm helping you scold this bastard Alaric..."
"Seraphina." Cecilia stopped her.
Seraphina frowned, clearly displeased.
"Stop it, you're drunk."
"I'm not drunk," Seraphina retorted.
"Seraphina!" Cecilia's face became more serious.
Seraphina pursed her lips.
She didn't understand why Cecilia was still protecting Alaric at this moment.
Cecilia wouldn't bluntly tell Seraphina in front of Alaric that his current status didn't allow them to disrespect him.
Tomorrow, or the day after, he would be the president of a country.
For ordinary people, meeting him would be an honor, let alone allowing him to be humiliated and cursed.
She went over and took Seraphina's hand. "It's late, you should go home."
"I'm not going. I came here to sleep tonight."
"Come back tomorrow, it's not convenient today."
"Not convenient?" Seraphina's voice rose again, "Are you going to let Alaric sleep with you?"
Cecilia pursed her lips.
What was Seraphina thinking?
She just thought that Alaric might have something to discuss with her.
And she didn't want to involve Seraphina in her and Alaric's matters.
"Cecilia, how can you be so submissive now! You can't compromise under his intimidation!" Seraphina was very agitated.
Cassius couldn't help but remind, "Cecilia is still pregnant, Alaric can't be so irrational..."
"Shut up!" Seraphina shouted at Cassius, "If he can abandon Cecilia and the child, what can't Alaric do?"
Cassius was suddenly rendered speechless by Seraphina.
Abandoning his wife and child was indeed a grave sin.
Unforgivable.
Cassius touched his nose and fell silent.
Seraphina said, "Cecilia, you can't let Alaric get his way."
Cecilia smiled helplessly, "Alright, Alaric isn't as heinous as you think."
Alaric wouldn't force her to do such things.
This, she was actually sure of.
"You're still defending him?" Seraphina's eyes widened. "How lucky he is to have met you!"
"Alright, alright." Cecilia didn't want to hear Seraphina continue; she urged, "Hurry up and go home."
"I don't want to..."
"I'll have Dashiell come pick you up." Saying that, Cecilia was about to make a call.
"No, don't call him!" Seraphina refused outright.
Cecilia frowned, "What's wrong? Did you two have a fight again?"
"How dare I fight with him? He's my boss now, I don't even have time to please him, let alone fight with him. Now, when I see him, it's like a mouse seeing a cat; I'm cautious every day." Seraphina said, feeling a bit aggrieved.
Cecilia could imagine Seraphina's demeanor in front of Dashiell.
Seraphina could really adapt to any situation.
"You dare to scold the president, but you don't dare to fight with Dashiell?" Cassius couldn't help but interrupt again.
He thought of how much Dashiell must have suffered in front of Seraphina and wanted to stand up for him.
Seraphina looked at Cassius and cursed, "He hasn't taken office yet, has he?"
Cassius couldn't help but laugh.
He laughed out loud.
Seraphina was really funny.
Thinking she was quite smart.
She knew that since Alaric hadn't taken office yet, she could scold him.
Once he took office, she wouldn't dare to scold him.
Previously, he found Seraphina really annoying, but at this moment, she seemed quite agreeable.
Alaric glared at Cassius.
Cassius cleared his throat, holding back his laughter.
Seraphina was also baffled by Cassius's laughter, she rolled her eyes at him and said to Cecilia, "Cecilia, let me stay with you tonight..."
"Alright, I have something to discuss with Alaric, come back tomorrow." Cecilia refused, then turned to Cassius, "Mr. Blackburn, could you please take Seraphina home?"
Cassius was taken aback.
"Mr. Blackburn" - this address.
He glanced at Alaric.
Obviously, this distant and unfamiliar address wasn't aimed at him, but at Alaric.
Alaric naturally understood as well.
He nodded slightly.
Cassius stood up from the sofa and walked towards Seraphina, "Let's go, I'll take you home."
"No." Seraphina refused.
Cassius frowned slightly, "I'm not as gentle as Dashiell, I might hit you."
"You..." Seraphina glared at Cassius.
Cassius grabbed Seraphina's arm, not wanting to waste words with her.
Seraphina was startled by Cassius's grip, "What are you doing? Are you going to kill me to silence me? Because I just scolded Alaric, are you going to kill me?"
Has she watched too many TV dramas?
Seraphina was dragged away by Cassius.
Even after a long time, the villa seemed to echo with Seraphina's deafening voice, lingering continuously.
"Don't worry, Cassius won't do anything to her," Alaric explained.
Cecilia withdrew her gaze.
Of course, she knew, otherwise, she wouldn't have let Cassius take Seraphina away.
She turned back, looking at Alaric, "It's so late, did you come to see me for something?"
Alaric lightly pressed his lips together.
He looked back at Cecilia's gaze.
Seeing the calmness in her eyes, the composure, without a trace of emotional fluctuation.
His thin lips moved slightly, "If I said I missed you, would you accept it?"
Cecilia remained indifferent.
She said, "Does it matter if I accept it or not? Can I refuse what you want to do?"
